Mary Helen Ledesma v. Alberto Garza, Elizabeth Garza, and Rio Delta Propane, LLC

NUMBER 13-25-00671-CV

COURT OF APPEALS

THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS

CORPUS CHRISTI – EDINBURG

MARY HELEN LEDESMA, Appellant,

v.

ALBERTO GARZA,
ELIZABETH GARZA,
AND RIO DELTA PROPANE, LLC, Appellees.

ON APPEAL FROM THE 476TH DISTRICT COURT
OF HIDALGO COUNTY, TEXAS

MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Silva, West, and Cron
Memorandum Opinion by Justice Silva

This cause is before the Court on its own motion. On December 12, 2025, appellant

filed a notice of appeal attempting to appeal an order denying plaintiff’s motion to reinstate

in trial court cause number C-1415-23-M. On December 18, 2025, the Clerk of the Court

notified appellant that it appears there is no final, appealable order. Appellant was further
notified that if the defect was not cured within ten days, the appeal would be dismissed.

See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3. Appellant has failed to respond to the notice or otherwise cure

the defect.

Upon review of the documents before us, we are of the opinion that there is no

final, appealable order, and appellant has failed to correct the defect. Absent an

appealable interlocutory order or final judgment, this Court has no jurisdiction over this

appeal. See Ogletree v. Matthews, 262 W.S.3d 316, 319 n.1 (Tex. 2007); Lehmann v.

Har-Con Corp., 39 S.W.3d 191, 205 (Tex. 2001). Having considered the documents on

file and appellant’s failure to correct the jurisdictional defect in this matter, we dismiss the

appeal for want of jurisdiction. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(a).

CLARISSA SILVA
Justice

Delivered and filed on the
26th day of February, 2026.
